【 摘 要 】

The present research mainly to explore the performance of customize flocculants agent made by reusable waste (WABE) to treat actual wastewater from different industry. The effect of mixing rate (10, 20, 30, 150, 175 and 200 rpm), sedimentation time (5, 15 and 30 min), initial pH (5, 6, 7 and original pH) of initial wastewater and flocculation dosage (2, 5 and 10% v/v) were investigatedbased on turbidity removal. WABE characterized by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The result shows flocculants agents have high turbidity removal up to 90% at optimum condition. This study also provides strong evident WABE can be developed as flocculants agent at low cost and low maintenance.
